Resident Evil 5 (Collector's Edition) Walkthrough & Strategy Guide

This mission will begin in the same building where the cutscene ending Chapter 2-1 took place. For the time being, you'll have no enemies to deal with, so scour the building for some goods, including a Green Herb and some bullets. Then, head out of the door to reach a train graveyard. You'll be forced to navigate in between the various abandoned train cars here, but be weary when you do. Not only will you run into some booby-trapped explosives (which can be dealt with in an identical fashion to how you dealt with them in the previous chapter), but you'll run into groups of demonic dogs (Adjule) as well. Moving forward, they'll come in three groups of three. So when you encounter one, try to stay put and deal with the three currently engaging you before moving forward, forcing more to come out of their hiding spots.

If you're extra savvy, you can actually encourage the Adjule to run themselves into the explosive booby traps, although this isn't necessary, nor is it easy (because the dogs are short and will have to jump into them to set them off). An alternate strategy, therefore, is to encourage the dogs to come towards the booby trap and then set the explosives off manually by shooting them. Either way, when the two explosive traps and three groups of Adjule are slain, you'll find some wooden boards stacked up ahead and to the left of the second booby trap. Climb atop this wood and then climb the ladder to reach the top of the train cars. You can deal with the three crossbow-wielding Majini up here, collecting the goods they drop. Just keep in mind that a couple of these foes will spawn Kipepeo when downed!

BSAA Emblem #9 - There are three BSAA Emblems located on Chapter 2-2, and the first one can be found presently. After you've climbed on top of the train cars and killed all of the enemies in the area, including the bow-armed enemies and the winged Kipepeo that spawn from them thereafter, things should be relatively quiet in the area. Use this opportunity to turn around and face the direction in which you came. In the distance, beyond the building where you started the chapter, you'll see a large electrical support column. The emblem you seek is attached to the side of it. It's visible with the naked eye and can be struck with your pistol, but if you have a sniper rifle on you, feel free to use that as well.

After shooting down BSAA Emblem #9, jump back down to where you climbed up atop the trains in the first place. We'll backtrack and find ourselves back on top of the trains in short order, but first, we want to find you a valuable and extremely easy-to-miss treasure. If you continue along the trains and then bear rightward towards a dead end (the chain link fence there blocks you from accessing the other side), you'll find a Jewel Beetle sitting on the wooden separator to your right. Be sure to grab that, and nearby ammunition as well, before backtracking to the top of the trains. Then, move forward (your partner is likely already waiting where you need to go), jump leftward, and climb down the dirt ramp, shooting the booby trap en route. Then, drop down into the mine cart and head forward to the elevator, avoiding or shooting out more explosive traps en route.

The elevator the mine cart brings you to should naturally be activated, but only after you've backtracked to grab the lump of valuable gold near the cart's starting position. When you take the elevator downward, you'll encounter a dark, dreary tunnel. There are some items for you to grab immediately, but perhaps more important is the lantern sitting on the ground. You or your partner must grab the lantern in order to move forward, or you will get lost in the dark abyss ahead. Preferably, your partner will hold the lantern, leaving your hands free for monster-killing. Your map won't work here, but that's okay, because getting lost is hard, as long as you have the lantern in hand. For starters, when you reach the first fork in your path, first take the right fork to find a Red Herb, and then backtrack to the left path, which you should take to continue.
